The Seven Shamanic Levels of Consciousness Preface Although formerly only known by shamans, I present this knowledge now to spiritual seekers and for the benefit of mankind.In 1989 I met a Hungarian Shaman, Joska Soos, in Antwerp, Belgium, who helped people with his private "shamanizations" and classes. Over the years I learned a lot, with new information about shamanism I had never read about in any literature. Among it was the system of seven levels of consciousness.

You just made the first big step in your spiritual growth. 2. Mankind is one,and all men are alikein that which concerns their creation. Most people live on an egocentric basis. 3. To see a world in a grain of sand,And a heaven in a wild flower,Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour.William Blake You became aware of yourself and your personality. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Shamanism:: Foundation for Shamanic Studies founded by Michael Harner Animisme & chamanisme : le monde des Inuits # 4 - Le blog de Phoebe Les Inuits sont issus des peuples autochtones des régions de l’Arctique de la Sibérie et de l’Amérique du Nord (Alaska, Territoires du Nord-Ouest, le Nunavut, le Yukon, le Nunavik au Québec, le Nunatsiavut au Labrador ainsi qu’au Groenland. Ces dernières populations inuites qui vivent au Groenland sont les plus connues car les plus étudiées d’un point de vue anthropologique. Les peuples inuits (inuk, pluriel d’inuit) sont variés et on en rencontre dans pratiquement toutes les régions polaires de la planète. Il existe les Inuits et les Inuvialuits du Canada, les Kalaallits du Groenland, les Iñupiats, les Yupiks de l’Alaska et les Yupiks de Russie (NB : les Yupiks de Russie ne sont pas considérés comme des Inuits au sens d’une descendance thuléenne). De nos jours, les Inuits constituent une population d’environ 150 000 individus, répartie pour la majeure partie au Canada et au Groenland. Le terme « inuit » provient de l’Inuktitut qui signifie « humain, personne », le pluriel est « inuk ».
Shamanism:: Foundation for Shamanic Studies founded by Michael Harner How therapy practice can be seen as a neo-shamanic healing journey I have long been intrigued about viewing the process of therapy as a sort of neo-shamanic journey. I am not talking about using ancient shamanic procedures as healing tools. I am talking about a sense of connecting with archetypal experiences in finding the place inside us from which change and healing are possible. The following describes some of the ideas behind this approach. The shamanic world The shaman of old would enter the realm of the spirits, the one place from which order and balance could be restored from the chaos of disease. The work of the shaman was integrated into the belief system of the society as a whole. Dealing with the experience of overwhelm The shaman was the mediator between overwhelmed humans and the active forces that were seen to have power over the world. Today, we no longer believe that the world is made to work by anthropomorphic spirits. Narrative, metaphors and personal experience The neo-shamanic journey See also: Collective Implicit
Lo Sciamanesimo e le Tradizioni Spirituali dei Nativi Americani La Visione Cosmica e Spirituale nel Nord e Centro America prima dell’arrivo di Colombo Di Nello Ceccon In questo articolo voglio dare una visione delle pratiche spirituali dei Nativi Americani. Naturalmente è un argomento molto vasto e quindi vorrei concentrarmi solo su certi aspetti. Il primo aspetto è legato alla geografia, perché dire Nativi Americani o Indiani, significa coprire un continente, quindi ci sono molte differenziazioni, come anche comunanze, tra le varie pratiche nel continente Americano. Qui parliamo soprattutto del nord e centro America. I tratti comuni tra le varie tradizioni corrispondono a quelli che sono i tratti comuni delle pratiche sciamaniche nel mondo. Quindi la matrice è quella dello sciamanesimo siberiano che poi si è diversificato nel corso dei millenni in maniera autonoma quando l’America e l’Asia sono di nuovo tornate divise. -la percezione di una realtà che non è visibile con gli occhi, con le orecchie o con le mani Gli Animali di Potere e Animali Totem
Psychopomp - Guide to the Afterlife Psychopomp Work PsychopompHealing the Dead Why the Dead Need Healing It may sound quite absurd to you that the dead need healing, after all they are dead and don't have a body any more, right? Correct, their physical bodies are gone but their energy bodies may still linger here even though they are not supposed to. Instead of moving on or "going into the light" many people become earthbound. There are various reasons for that, such as guilt, fear, religious conditioning, unfinished business or lack of spiritual energy to move to higher planes. What Happens Upon Death? When a human being dies his energy or astral body gets ejected from his physical body, his mortal shell. The Psychopomp A psychopomp is a shaman who accompanies the dead on their last journey, at least part of the way. Could Your Loved Ones Be Earthbound? Many people are stuck in the erroneous notion that only negative people become earthbound, not the virtuous and pious. Apparition. Psychopomp Services (for a Deceased Relative)

What a Shaman Sees in A Mental Hospital By: Stephanie Marohn with Malidoma Patrice Somé The Shamanic View of Mental Illness In the shamanic view, mental illness signals “the birth of a healer,” explains Malidoma Patrice Somé. Thus, mental disorders are spiritual emergencies, spiritual crises, and need to be regarded as such to aid the healer in being born. What those in the West view as mental illness, the Dagara people regard as “good news from the other world.” One of the things Dr. “I was so shocked. Another way to say this, which may make more sense to the Western mind, is that we in the West are not trained in how to deal or even taught to acknowledge the existence of psychic phenomena, the spiritual world. On the mental ward, Dr Somé saw a lot of “beings” hanging around the patients, “entities” that are invisible to most people but that shamans and psychics are able to see. “The Western culture has consistently ignored the birth of the healer,” states Dr. Schizophrenia and Foreign Energy With their permission, Dr. Dr. Dr.
Shamanic Journey, Shamans and Shamanism Animal Symbolism Selling the Sacred: Get Your Master's in Native American Shamanism? - Indian Country Media Network New Age spirituality has been building momentum for more than a century, according to scholars—who don’t like it any more than Native people do. Author Harold Bloom called New Age practices “the American religion” that “has been emptying our politics and our private lives of meaning.” A reviewer of another author, Catherine Tumber, said New Agers are “fungus-like, out of our uncontrolled capitalism.” There is one thing the critics missed though, and that is what New Agers are doing in Indian country. A case in point is the Divine Blessings Academy, which objectifies and quantifies spirituality as a product for sale. This image shows a screen capture from the Divine Blessings Academy Course Catalog for Introduction to Shamanism. Shamanism is a term used often in South America for one who is able to obtain healing through communication with spirits. All of these courses are offered through downloadable PDF files.
